Even if the masses of jobless graduates had entrepreneurial skills, where do they get the investment / funds to push their business forward
GEJ need to start employing better / more caring peops as ministers. Obviously, this ladies kids are abroad or in private uni's else she has placed them in top gov. roles and then opens her mouth to reign insults on the not-so-lucky average nigerian graduates.

Churches will be reluctant to co-operate as they are enjoying their new source of sustainance

Inner beauty is more important. but a little bit of outer beauty added will go a long way to complete the package

Depends on the scenario:

"Its a bit scary walking theses streets alone, you dont mind to escort me ?"

or

"I can see you have trekked a long way here, you mind a lift on my back ?"

I haven't been in my home city of PH for over a year, still what I can say to those criticising Ameachi is that they should 'be quiet and happy with the efforts he's making' because as we all know, he could be worse - like Odili and many other governors across the country. Nigerian leaders have no accountability - they can come, stay 8years and go away without implementing one positive change in their state, and still proudly boast of being a past leader in that state. No one will arrest or harass them for not performing (although somebody should). 

The reason behind the hype with Ameachi (like Fashola) is that he is actually making serious effort to tackle the problems in the state. But this is Nigeria - there is never a shortage of problems - dilapidating infrastructure, poor road, and drainage issues left-right-and centre. So his effort will always look fible.

If Amaechi happens to decide to ignore all your complains over the next 4 years and do no other road work in the state, what will anybody do to him ? NOTHING,    as thats the Nigeria way.  He has chosen to act - so let us praise a working governor and encourage him, not complain.

THOSE OF YOU COMPLAINING NEED TO GO LIVE OVERSEA WHERE YOU CAN SUE A COUNCILLOR TO COURT FOR NOT PERFORMING DURING HIS TENURE IN OFFICE,   IN NIGERIA THERE IS NOTHING YOU CAN DO TO THEM WHEN THEY DONT PERFORM, SO BE HAPPY WHEN THEY DO.   
…And thats the damned truth !!

The starting point will be:

- Provide better training for them

- Provide the required 'international standard' resource for crime fighting

- Increase there salaries

Seems like nothing to me, Many other women will ignore it and be happy for their kind and loving husband and a happy home.
You might be taking it a bit too sensitively. Their could be far more issues with your husband so 'Be happy' - not sad !!!

The militants are simply seeking attention and are likely to do nothing but talk.

It seems like terrorism is the way forward with Nigeria's youths as the government over the years
has refused to focus on improving the standard of living of the people. instead stealing selfishly for their own families and home communities.

Its unfortunate that these rabels dont focus there terror campaign on our rich politicians.
they are the only nigerians who's homes and properties deserve to be bombed daily until they start to change their ways.

kalokalo:
Its intriguing how sisters in their thirties go to pastors to pray for God to send them men to come marry them. The average ready guy around that age won't go for women in that age range when he can pull girls years younger and still in their prime unless God does a miracle and changes his mating instincts dictated by nature in the first place.

Women start to complain of men shortage in their late twenties and early thirties. Ladies in their late teens to mid twenties don't have this problem. This is the prime years when a lot of men knock at a woman's door for romance and marriage.  But too many sisters pass them up holding out for their proverbial rich knight in golden armor

As men age, their options expand while that of women narrows. Its unfortunate but true. A lady who shoots down a guy who is 8/10 in her youth may find herself settling for a 4/10 guy in the future as she aged. That is if she finds any at all. Meanwhile she was holding out for a 10/10 guy in the first place.

Very true ,    I read on another similar thread on Nairaland, that the reason for this mentality with naija ladies is because they belive that their future husband will cheat on them (considering how so many young fine women are easily available to anyman with a little cash these days - and all their future husband has to do is pay) So they also try to enjoy themself as much as they can today before they get married, while passing-off potential husbands - but by the time they are ready no one wants them anymore.

I have heard a lot about this kind of card-details-theft here in London, but never come across a real story b4.
Thanks for posting the pictures - now i know what the device looks like, and can watchout when using ATMs

Military option is not applicable as YOU CANNOT FIGHT WHO YOU CANNOT SEE (THEY CURRENTLY HAVE NO IDENTITY)
A tactical approach of cutting-off their financial supply will instantly destroy the "Broke" haram group -who are obviously sourced by some (ex)politicians

They Lie.  HERES THE TRUTH:

Women in developing economies spend more of their additional cash on Sustainance: food, clothes, health and education for their children.
While women in the developed economies actually dedicate more of their cash to paying off debt, paying bills, and fashion: clothes and accessories.

I've lived in Naija and now in the Uk and this is what I think the truth is  /\

This is silly

I vote fashola, I think GEJ was a mistake - should not have won election, Nigeria needs a leader that can exert force and
has a tenacious personality. not one that needs 20 personal advicers etc, He needs to get serious, Nigeria needs him to ACT !?!!

No fewer than six kungfu fighters participating in the ongoing Garden City Games 2011 in Port Harcourt , Rivers State , have been admitted for intensive treatment at the Braithwaite Memorial Hospital, BMH.

Vanguardsports gathered that 30 of the sportsmen have so far been referred to the BMH from the City Hall, Moscow Road, while it was learnt that the admitted kungfu men where stretched out of the arena after their bouts.

It was observed that the “Bruce Lee” men and women are usually given first aid by the medics at the venue immediately after the flying and kicking bouts before being referred to the specialist hospital.

If we must do it, why dont we do it safely - In foreign countries they will wear face mask and other protective gear for this kind of sports but e be like people go die first before our government go sabi say body no be firewood.

Uk spy ke ? , And what can they do about it ?

I think he is simply quoting what he expects to be worth when he leaves Office in 4 years time.

My friend by not taking your payment, you may be opening the doors for her to start trying to USE you in the future,
seeing that you are ready to sacrifice cash for your feelings for her - this depends on the manner of person she is.

You get to hear phrases like"Oga,wetin u bring for us make we use do weekend".

Those imigration guys dey-look-face,   It depends on how you come-across and what u say in responce to any questions or joke etc,   if u be like a softie that dey can bully a little - or like a naija man that know what goan, !

Goldieluks:
190 i TOTALLY DISAGREE WITH YOU ON THIS ONE.
Nigerian women are the most conservative and sensible of all women,

lets start here,

talk about ,white British women, they tend to include their real names,phone numbers,addresses,pictures on their face book page,
they don't even care to make it private.You live in the UK right?how many Nigerian women have you seen on TV,that's been deceived,abused,
used,or even killed by maybe a paedophile or a despoiler? YOU TELL ME,can you compare it to the rate of white young girls or white old women?

OK lets talk about clubbing,one night stand,even on the train.How many black girls have YOU 190 ,been able to chat up
when you go on social gatherings,like parties and clubs,that would agree to give you their number straight away?

Don't come on here stating what you are not sure of,always state the fact.
Nigerian women are very smart,they can flirt with you,laugh,play,say all sort of flirty words with you,but my dear,it ends there.
But not with a white woman,if you doubt it,WATCH JEREMY KYLE.

I guess the issue exists everywhere but truly though - naija girls need to hold-back a bit with guys dem meet.
I'd say - with naija girls, it boils down to the economic factors, and need to survive.  While with the oyibo chicks dem, dey see it as having-a-nite-out and catching fun - but its all the same d*ck-hunger but with different approaches

It is said that "the decisions you make today, will determine how you live tomorrow."  I guess the eyes of abia people were not blind-folded when they were electing Orji. now see how he uses their funds.

Unlike the Rivers state or Lagos state govornors who are constantly bettering the life of their people, this guy has got a different agender.    The worst part is that (while others do this in silence) he has the confidence ( or is it foolishness) to come out and say it boldly that he will be spending funds (obviously not his own) on traditional rulers.  , So unfortunate.

This use to happen in my high scool days in PH - rich school kids steal their folks cars and start stunting outside school just when it closes and everyone is going home.   But to see this happening on the streets of Abuja (the capital) is a disgrace.

I believe the reality of this matter is that: Only marriages that were inspired by money will break-up without money. Marriages that were inspired by love will NOT break apart later, because of absence of money.
